All Aboard for FARALLON ISLAND

Post author By Russell
Post date March 29, 2021

On March 30, my historical horror novella, FARALLON ISLAND gets released by Silver Shamrock Press. In it, Nate Thalmann wants to escape his life as a Prohibition Era bootlegger. He moves with his pregnant wife Alice to the Farallon Island lighthouse, situated on a tiny, rocky island twenty-seven miles off the California coast. Joining three other keepers and their families, he hopes for peace.

But one of the children finds a secret cave, and releases a demon imprisoned within. Soon the islanders are being stalked and slaughtered by a possessed former keeper. The demon within him wants only Alice kept alive, at least until she’s given birth to the demon’s next permanent vessel.

With no radio, no resupply coming, and no weapons, it is up to Nate to keep his wife and unborn child safe. But the body-hopping demon is always one step, and one corpse, ahead of him.

Grab paperback or ebook copies anywhere books are sold. Here’s the link to Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08X3WF3V9/

Have a nice island vacation!
